Abstract
Phytochemical studies on Cassia italica have resulted in the isolation of beta-sitosterol, stigmasterol, alpha-amyrin, 1,5-dihydroxy-3-methy l anthraquinone and a new anthraquinone, the structure of which was as signed on the basis of spectral studies. The new compound is shown to possess antimicrobial and antitumour activity.
